IGP Adamu Hands Over To Sanusi Lemu by fergie001(mod): 7:08pm On Feb 02, 2021
The outgoing Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has reportedly handed over to Deputy Inspector General of Police, Operations, DIG Sanusi Lemu, as the most senior police officer.

Adamu who attained the statutory retirement age on Monday was said to have asked Lemu to oversee the administration of the Nigeria Police Force pending the appointment of a new IG by the President.

The IG came to the office briefly earlier today to transfer the authority to Lemu.

A source said, “The IG has not officially handed over power to DIG Lemu; he merely asked him to take over as the most senior DIG pending directives from the Presidential Villa. Adamu is still nursing the hope that he may get tenure extension.”

Lemu was appointed the DIG Operations last November following the retirement of DIG Abdulmajid Ali.

That’s the right thing to do. He had served the country to the best of his ability and his time is up. I wish him the best of life in retirement. The ball is now in the court of the president to appoint a substantive IGP.

embarassed Government by the North and for the North. The vegetable doesn't even hide his nepotism. A bigot in the 1980s and a bigot for life.

So the news about Zanna's appointment isn't credible

Southerners hope you are learning from buhari.

Police office Lemu is the most senior police officer n should temporarily be in charge pending wen a substantive head will be appointed. hence the rule of law was applied here....
but my question is, if it was a southerner more still an igbo man was the present senior police officer, will they hv handed over to him? the case of DSS head n VP Osibanjo case is still fresh.


anyway, a northern Muslim will be appointed the new IGP
